How’s the power on a BCS 737?

[FolkBear]

We’ve been thinking about getting our first 2 wheel tractor to help in our market gardens. Been doing a lot of research into new models and eyeing the BCS 749. Our plan is to scale it up and buy implements along the way. However, I just found a fellow a few hours from me that’s selling a 737 in excellent condition. It’s the first used one I’ve seen posted near me and the price is very attractive compared to a new one. It has the 10 hp Acme engine. I’ve been struggling to find much info out there about it, but I’ve been poking around at Earthtools and also found the manual for it. It appears to me to be a later model 737. If I’m not mistaken, it looks like BCS changed the hood design in the later models to a more curved one compared to the early boxey hood. Knowing that I need a PTO adaptor, my question is whether this tractor has the power to run modern implements, specifically a power harrow and flail mower? Any advice or personal experience is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forum.
I'm not familiar with the 737 but you are going the right way by looking at EarthTools, lots of knowledge there.
We dropped in on them to pick up our flail mower couple of years ago - great people :thumbsup:
